It was a pretty normal autumn day, I was only six years old at that time and... I was very anxious! It was my first day of school, I was holding my mum's hand with fear and excitement. I was shaking, I didn't know what will happen...
I wasn't sure if I will ever make friends at that school or if I will be able to hold on with all the stress and I had so many questions if the school is going to be like in that American movies, in the American shows where kids looks so happy and make school seem so easy and fun. It was a completely new experience for me...
 I was full of questions that I didn't bother to ask anybody about, although I think I should have.

I finally entered in the school, then I realized that my school life isn't going to be like some American show, there was nothing similar to what I've seen an to be fair, I was a bit disappointed, I hoped for so much and my expectations went so low as I stepped on the corridor. No lockers or cool colored walls, neither a school full of kids running around like crazy and playing pranks on teachers.

 I tried to ignore my disappointed and walked slowly in the classroom headed by my teacher, who was such a kind type of woman and- okay I sound dramatic in here, and of course this isn't what I thought, I was a six years old not a poet, realistically talking, I just walked in the classroom and nothing special actually happened.

 In the first period we just met each other, we talked about ourselves, our hobbies, what we want to become when we will be older, what do we think school is like and so on, pretty usual questions if you're asking me.
 In the first break, right after the teacher left the classroom, I started talking with everybody and getting friends with every anxious or sociable kid from that classroom and not only. I got so many friends and I was so enraptured by everything that I didn't even realize how that twenty minutes of the break passed. Now, the teacher has decided how we will sit in the classroom and stuff, she asked me to sit next to this one ''girl'', as they identified themselves at that time.
 Who, by the way, that person become to be my next partner! In a romantic way, but this is gonna happen in about over eleven years or something.
I was a six years old, but the universe made it out so I could meet my soulmate in that one day, in that one specific first day of school.
